The Lions took control early on two first quarter touchdown passes from Matt Stafford to Calvin Johnson. The Giants cut the lead to 14-7 on a touchdown from Eli Manning to Larry Donnell to make it 14-7, which was the score at the half.
The Lions dominated the third quarter, getting two field goals from Nate Freese and a five-yard touchdown run from Stafford. The Giants again tried to get back in the game – they drove 80 yards in 14 plays and got a one-yard touchdown run by Rashad Jennings to cut the lead to 27-14.
The Lions then answered with a 12-play, 80-yard drive. Running back Joique Bell scored from three yards out and then headed to the stands to celebrate with the Lions’ fans.
